1. To the land of Nile delta I came
And none like you Nile I've seen
١. إِلَىَ أَرْضِ الْكِنَانَةِ قَدْ أَتَيْتُ
وَمِثْلَكِ يَا كِنَانَةُ مَا رَأَيْتُ
2. Many rivers I travelled, but none quenched my thirst
So I returned to your water and got satisfied
٢. وَكَمْ نَهْرٍ قَصَدْتُ , فَمَا رَوَانِيْ
فَعُدْتُ لِمَاءِ نِيْلِكِ فَارْتَوَيْتُ
3. I walked east and west
With you in my heart wherever I went
٣. وَنَقَّلْتُ الْخُطَىَ شَرْقاً , وَغَرْباً
فَكُنْتِ بِمُهْجَتِيْ أَنَّىَ مَشَيْتُ
4. May God protect you Egypt, land of civilization
Cradle of heroism and bravery
٤. رَعَاكِ اللهُ يَا مِصْرَ الْحَضَارَهْ
وَيَا مَهْدَ الْبُطُوْلَةِ , وَالْجَسَارَهْ
